How Often Does Parathyroid Cancer Recur?

I m about to have a second parathyroid removed. Sestamebi (sp) test w/b 20th. How many times can this occur? One thyroid was removed years back, and that was where the first parathyroid was bad. I m sorta scared about what s going on! Can you give me some reassurance? Thank you sooo much. Emily
